The lowly Sioux crawled out of the ocean onto a small, dismal rock. The creation of our civilization has been slow and arduous. However, recent explorations have opened up new frontiers and room to grow in. A gracious gift from our allies has allowed us to achieve Monarchy, a state of affairs that is cause for much rejoicing among our peace-loving people. We look forward to our impending growth and meetings with other civilizations...now, about those Howies...?

Out of the darkness came a new light to the land of Lorien. After the departure of the Lady Galadriel the elves sought solice elsewhere leaving the land of Lorien hidden, to be found scores of years later by the goddess Empress. Soon word spread wide and far that the fair Galadriel had returned, though the people were far from dissapointed upon gazing at the goddess Empress instead. Soon the city of Pulse was founded, a city blessed with fish and coal surrounded by rich grassland and fertile plains. Soon settlers from other lands came to Lorien and other cities soon dotted the land. So far the borders are vast, as no other peoples have been found. A few technologies have been discovered and with the enlightenment of her people, the goddess saw fit to govern as Queen. However, it is rumored that soon the land shall become a reupblic. In the year 850bc a disaster the likes of which had not been seen in several hundred years befell the fair land--a horde of barbarians found by an unsuspecting chariot attacked and captured the city of Wish. However in less than a hundred years time archers from Works came to recapture the devastated town of Wish. Although taken aback by this mishap, the land of Lorien has strengthend its cities with several fortifications and two new temples have been errected to pray for the protection of their cities. All in all the future appears bright and all the Empress in her isolation and loniness yearns for a worthy ally...

The Japanese (Me) stink! I'm stuck on a lousy piece of land covered mainly by desert and plains shut off from the rest of the continent by the Chinese - so typical...
I can see 2 other civs and the wonderful land they are on and ask the eternal question - why random placements? The only bright spot are the trade routes we will soon create but the notion I will even build space race components before someone has launched their ship is painfully hilarious.

In our last session the English continued to expand into their vast frontier. New cities were the norm, and back near the capital Libraries and markets were under construction, and many devoted their efforts to the persuit of science. One of the advances brought by research was the knowledge of shipbuilding, and our fleet has begun to explorethe ocean sea, and near the end of the session great acclaim was given to the capitan of the navy as he has apparently discovered what appears to be natives on a island offshore performing tasks related to high level agriculture. More exploration efforts are planned.

The land of Lorien continues to prosper as several new cities have been founded. Also, another construction effort of creating a road system to link the many cities is almost complete. While explores have been slowed by barbarian attacks from old huts, it appears our borders will be complete in a few turns and that they are contained within a large island. With the news of several ships abroad, a massive effort to militarize the land has been successfully implimented and the people now feel completly secure and are content. In fact, temples have been errected in nearly every city and two new librarys have been built for the enlightenment of our people, and a comming Republic is now rumoured. Yet, despite all these new improvements the Empress remains in isolation and lonliness... despritly seeking an ally...

The humble Sioux continue to painstakingly expand their meager lot in life, venturing bravely into uncharted lands. Their efforts have paid off and they now have established colonies on four separate land masses. Though primitive and not as large as other cultures, they are learning much from the observation of their fellows. Recently, a strange ship was seen on the northern shore of our small home island....though we have little to offer in technology, the Sioux are prepared to trade goods and knowledge of the seas in exchange for goodwill and friendship. We have powerful allies nearby, so we do not fear the coming of new cultures. Let all cultures join together in the glorification of the human race...let us reach the heavens together!

The Royal Axtec Navy is venturing far and trade has flourished with the Germans and the Japanese, navagation, soon to be discovered, will open the rest of the world to Aztec greatness. Allies will be rewarded and treachery crushed ruthlessly. The Royal Aztec Republic will continue to flourish.

The goddesss Empress is pleased to report that the land of Lorien is now a full Republic. However, there have been mixed results. While production has increased and the rate of science research has increased, the people seem to have grown weary of thier toils and a plauge of unhappiness is sweeping the once happy land. However, upon the installment of entertainers and with more money directed at luxeries, the land of Lorien is content once again. Three new cities have been founded and roads to connect them to the rest of the road system is underway. Overall the land is prosperous.. only the Empress in her isolation still seeks an ally...

The English continued their vetures into the unknown last session. An expedition was sent to the southern island and they confirmed the navy's rumors of civilization. Although the settlements were small and primative in comparison to the English settlements the natives none the less were friendly and shared their unqiue perspective on technology in exchange some English advances. Seeing no need to provoke the natives, England signed a treaty of peace with the natives and reconized their two small islands as theirs for eternity. The natives told us of a larger, Roman civilization and gave us crude maps that indicated that their homeland lay somewhere to the west on one of two medium sized continents, however so far the English navy have only been able to confirm one small island to the west, which has been settled in the name of his Majesty Sir Francis Madison Johnson, Knight of the Desert and King of the Great Continent. When last reports came from the capitan of the royal navy, reports were coming in of a new island off the north coast to be slated for immediate settlement upon exploration with approval from the parlament.

The humble Sioux continue to scrape out a foothold in this difficult world. We have had to venture into the inhospitable sea in order to find more land to add to our meager holdings. In our travels we have met with the mighty Romans, a noble if not somewhat isolationist people and the sea-faring peoples of the English nation, who have been, as are the Romans, willing to share technology, maps and civilized concepts of diplomacy and territory establishment. We look forward to aiding other greater civilizations in whatever way we can, be it through trade or martial vigilance. We only worry that our neighbors to the north and east will expand too much and take what little frontier we have at our disposal. News of vast and mighty empires in other parts of the globe have Sioux medicine men consulting the entrails of chickens in an attempt to foresee the future.

The Sioux people have spoken. Their nation is small and scattered, their cities unhappy. Chief Running Mouth did his best to create a simple and happy land for his people, but they demand more trade, military and population. His pastoral vision is not enough for them. The young people talk of 'spaceships', something he knows nothing about. In light of this, and being a good and kind leader, Running Mouth has chosen a replacement, CaveBear, to take the reins of leadership and lead the Sioux into a modern prosperity.
Running Mouth will go away and consult the spririts of his ancestors on the Big Hole river for a time. Whether he returns to take back the leadership of his people, or decides that CaveBear is his better, remains to be seen. In the meantime, his successor has been directed to honor all past treaties and boundaries, and to bring the Sioux to a new era of might and honor.
May he lead well.

Honored with entreaties and sacrifices, the Cavebear-Spirit has taken on mortal form to once again succor his chosen People.

He has heard the advice of the Peoples' Leader, Running Mouth, and learned of the alliances and trading routes of the present generation of the Sioux. All will be honored while Running Mouth seeks wisdom and enlightenment in Far Lands...

The Cavebear-Spirit wonders, though, at what plane of existance he should contact the other Masters of the World for this challenge Sunday at 4 pm Eastern Time.
